Constructor Detail

QoC

public QoC()

Default Constructor. Use default integrity and default confidentiality.

QoC

public QoC(java.lang.String integrity,
           java.lang.String confidentiality)

Constructor with communication scheme/protocol, integrity and confidentiality.

Parameters:

integrity - the way for integrity of communication

confidentiality - confidentiality of communication

Method Detail

getConfidentiality

public java.lang.String getConfidentiality()

Returns the confidentiality of aglet transfer and messages.

Returns:

the confidentiality of aglet transfer and messages

getDueDate

public java.util.Date getDueDate()

Gets the due-date to connect via this channel.

Parameters:

due-date - to connect via this channel

getIntegrity

public java.lang.String getIntegrity()

Returns the way to warrant integrity of messages.

Returns:

the way to warrant integrity of messages

getTimeout

public long getTimeout()

Gets the waiting time for time-out to connect via this channel.

Returns:

waiting time for time-out[milli seconds]

setConfidentiality

public void setConfidentiality(java.lang.String confidentiality)

Sets the confidentiality for aglet transfer and message.

Parameters:

confidentiality - Confidentiality for aglet transfer and message.

setDueDate

public void setDueDate(java.util.Date date)

Sets the due-date to connect via this channel. When null is given, there is no due-date and infinitely try to connect.

Parameters:

dueDate - due-date for time-out

setIntegrity

public void setIntegrity(java.lang.String integrity)

Sets the switch to warrant the integrity of communication. This is to protect messages from tampering. The aglet adds the message digest or digital signature to his message.

Parameters:

integrity - way to warrant the integrity of communication

setTimeout

public void setTimeout(long milliseconds)

Sets the waiting time for time-out to connect via this channel. When 0 is given, there is no waiting time for time-out and infinitely try to connect.

Parameters:

milliseconds - waiting time for time-out [milli seconds]

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of the quality of communication.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a string representation of the quality of communication
